Lucy Kent lives and works in Wiltshire, UK. Having trained originally in portraiture, Lucy felt more of a pull to the landscape around her and taught herself how to paint it; She works in oil, both en plein air and from the studio. Her paintings are a direct response to her environment and she is most inspired by shifting light and colour and the interactions between high skies and wide landscapes. Working directly from life and combining knife and brush marks, Lucy’s work is energetic, vibrant and immersive. She travels extensively and has painted in Italy, Madagascar and Sri Lanka. Lucy is also co-founder of Art for Charity Collective.
